SCAN Homework #7 (Part 2) Answers
1. 91.151: Fly to destination, then for 45 minutes at normal cruise speed. 2. 91.155(b)(2): 1 sm clear of clouds. This is allowed at night in Class G when you are in the traffic pattern of an airport within 1/2 mile of the field. 3. 91.155(c): 1,000 feet 4. 91.155(d): Ground visibility, if no ground visibility reported then flight visibility during takeoff or landing or in the pattern. NOTE: For special VFR if no ground visibility is reported, cockpit visibility in the takeoff position works 5. 91.155(e): 1sm Clear of clouds. Even though you are in Class E airspace, class G visibility and could clearances apply because you are at the base of class E. 6. 91.157(a): Yes, but keep in mind that special VFR can only be conducted within the airspace contained by the upward extensions of controlled airspace designated to the surface of an airport. Basically you can only do Special VFR within the surface area of an airport. 7. 91.157(b)(4): The pilot and aircraft must be instrument rated NOTE: Sunset to Sunrise, NOT night determines when instrument rated pilot and aircraft are needed for special VFR. 8. 91.159: Yes, VFR cruising altitudes only apply when above 3,000 AGL or when in a holding pattern of 2 minutes or less. 9. 91.203(c): In addition to your ARROW documents you need an copy of the FAA form 337 for the fuel tank. 10. 91.205(b): - Magnetic Compass - Altimeter - Tachometer - Fuel Guages (one for each tank) - Oil temp guage - Oil pressure guage - Landing gear indicator - Seat belts - Manifold Pressure guage (CS prop aircraft) - Airspeed indicator - Temp Gauge (for liquid cooled engines) - ELT - Anti-collision light (for aircraft manufactured after March 11, 1996) - Flotation gear (if operated for hire beyond power off gliding distance from shore) - Shoulder harness for each front seat (for aircraft manufactured after July 18, 1978) 11. 91.205(c): - Day VFR equipment - Position lights - Anti-collision lights - One electric landing light (if operated for hire) - Adequate source of energy for all installed electrical AND radio equipment - Fuses: - One complete set, or - 3 of each kind - They must be readily accessible in flight 12. 91.205(b)(13): Approved floatation gear, and one pyrotechnic signaling device 13. 91.205(b)(11): Yes, assuming you are flying to a location where repairs can be made. Otherwise, No. 14. 91.207(c): After 1 cumulative hour of use, or 50% of its useful life 15. 91.207(d): 12 calendar months 16. 91.207(f)(10): - You can operate for 90 days without the ELT provided that it was removed for inspection, repair, modification, or replacement. - If it is removed for the above reasons there must be a placard in full view of the pilot stating "ELT not installed." 17. 91.207(f)(13): Yes, but only if the flight remains within a 50nm radius of the starting airport. 18. 91.209(a): - Sunset to Sunrise - In Alaska: When prominent unlighted objects cannot be seen from 3 miles or, when the sun is more than 6 degrees below the horizon. 19. 91.209(b): NO, if equipped with anti-collision lights they must be on and operating. 20. 91.211: None, you must provide it above 15,000 feet Pressure Altitude but they are not required to use it. 21. 91.211(a): No oxygen is required at your altitude. The oxygen requirements are dependant on PRESSURE ALTITUDE not indicated altitude. Thus, in the problem your pressure altitude is 12,300 and you do not need oxygen. 22. 91.211(a)(1): Any time for more than 30 minutes at that altitude. See the above question for an explaination. 23. 91.213(d): All three of the follwoing must be met 1. The inoperative equipement is not: - Part of the Day VFR - Indicated as required on the equipement list for the aircraft - required by 91.205 for the operation being conducted - Required by and AD 2. The inoperative equipment is: - Removed, the cockpit control placarded, and MX log made, or - Deactivated, placarded "INOPERATIVE," and a MX log made if MX action was required 3. A Determination is made by a certificated pilot and/or mechanic that the inoperative equipment does not constitute a hazard to the aircraft. 24. It is a list of equipment that may be inoperative and the aircraft will still be legal to fly. 25. 91.215(b): - Class A, B, and C airspace - Within 30nm of a class B airport up to 10,000 feet (mode C veil) - Above Class B&C - At and above 10,000 MSL excluding at and below 2,500 feet AGL 26. 91.215(c): NO, all aircraft in controlled airspace with an operating transponder must have it on. 27. 91.215(d)(3): 1 hour before your proposed operation 28. 91.303(c): Yes, as long as the airport does not have class B,C,D, or E airspace to the surface. Also you must remain above 1,500 feet AGL. 29. 91.303: An intentional maneuver involving an abrupt change in an aircraft's attitude, and anormal attitude, or abnormal acceleration, not necessary for normal flight. 30. 91.307(a): - Chair type: 120 days - Any other type: 120 days if made of synthetic fibers, or 60 days if any part is made of silk, pongee or other natural fabric. 31. 91.307(c): - Bank in excess of 60 degrees relative to the horizon - Nose-up or down attitude of 30 degrees relative to the horizon 32. 91.307(d)(2): No 33. 91.309(a)(4): Yes, you must notify FSS 34. 91.311: No 35. 91.319(d): Notify both of the experimental nature of the aircraft 36. 91.321: No, even though it authorizes carriage of candidates under part 91, a private pilot cannot carry passengers for compensation or hire. 37. 91.403(a): Owner or operator 38. 91.405(c): - At the next scheduled inspection - However they can simply remove it as well 39. 91.405(d): No, it must say "INOPERATIVE". This is per 43.11 40. 91.407(a): No, a maintenance entry must be made prior to further flight 41. 91.407(b): A minimum of a Private Pilot 42. 91.409(b): - Operating an aircraft carrying a passenger for hire - Flight instruction in which the CFI provides the aircraft 43. 91.409(b): No, you can extend a 100-hour inspection for up to 10 hours ONLY to get an aircraft to a point where the inspection can be done. 44. 91.411: Never 45. 91.413(a): 24 calendar months 46. 91.417(b)(1): Yes, but it is not a good practice.
